At this time, several other pavilion elders in the duty room finally woke up from the news just now. Zhang Siwei twirled his beard and said: "Your Majesty, this method is really good, there are countless people alive!"
Everyone here is a thousand-year-old fox, how can anyone not understand what this means? Because if something is said to be done well, it will naturally be said that it is done well! But he chose to use the word "method", which shows that he
See clearly the intentions of Emperor Wanli!
Shen Shixing also nodded and said: "Indeed, Your Majesty is really a merciful Lord, with countless living people! I have encountered one thing, and I still feel emotional when I think about it!"
After hearing what he said, several cabinet ministers turned their heads and waited for him to continue. Even Zhang Juzheng opened his eyes and looked at him.
Just listen to Shen Shixing say: "You know I have always liked to listen to the piano and drink tea, so I often go to the teaching department. There is a violinist named Gui Niang there, who plays the piano very well!"
Everyone laughed when they heard this, and the meaning was self-evident. Listening to the piano and drinking tea is an elegant thing. As for why you have to go to the Department of Education and Visits to listen to the piano and drink tea, it must be because of the tea there.
So delicious!
Shen Shixing was not embarrassed, he waved his hand casually to signal everyone to quiet down, and then continued: "Just the year before, I went to the Jiaofang Division. As soon as I got off the sedan, I saw a beggar not far away. According to common sense,
Said, this kind of person would like to hide far away when he sees me, but he runs towards me rolling and crawling!"
Zhang Siwei said strangely: "There is such a bold beggar, isn't he afraid of being beaten to death? Could it be..."
Shen Shixing nodded and said, "Brother Ziwei probably guessed it! It's what you think!"
Everyone roughly guessed the result, and naturally they paid more attention to the whole story. Shen Shixing continued: "My guard wanted to drive him away at that time, but he didn't expect that he shouted directly at me, Mr. Shen Ge! But he called me
I was stunned! I didn’t know that even a beggar knew my name!”
After hearing this, everyone burst into laughter again. Zhang Han said with a smile: "Don't be shy, just keep talking!"
Shen Shixing smiled and continued: "I was also surprised at the time, so I asked the guard to let him over. When he came closer, I didn't recognize him despite his unkempt appearance! So I asked him to report his home.
I didn’t expect that we actually know this person! Do you still remember the old eunuch who was responsible for replacing the carbon basin here a year ago, right?”
Zhang Siwei raised his head and thought about it and said: "I have an impression, but I don't know the name. Could it be him?"
Shen Shixing clapped his thigh and said, "That's him! He was smart at the time and didn't say his name. He just said that he was from the palace and was responsible for keeping candles and carbon basins on duty. That's when I remembered him!"
After hearing this, everyone sighed and sighed. Shen Shixing continued: "I asked him what was going on at that time? He told me in tears. It turned out that he was old, and when it was time to be dismissed, the palace
He was given one hundred and twenty taels of silver to let him return to his hometown. But he had no relatives in his hometown, and he had no whereabouts even if he went back. So he planned to do some small business in the capital. But in the end, he met a liar, and those
I was deceived out of my severance money and my family savings, about 300 taels of silver, and was reduced to a beggar! I thought he was really pitiful, so I gave him 100 taels of silver and let him go back to his hometown!"
Everyone present sighed again after hearing this! However, everyone heard the sound of sobbing outside the door. Shen Shixing asked the clerk on duty to go out to check. Then the clerk brought a crying middle-aged eunuch into the room.
Everyone knew this man, he was the eunuch in charge of the lights. At this time, he was biting his lip and crying softly.
Shen Shixing understood and asked, "What is the relationship between that old eunuch and you?"
The eunuch wiped away his tears and bowed and said: "Come back to the pavilion, sir, that is my master! It turns out that he is in charge of the lights and the carbon basin in the duty room. After he leaves, this job will be mine!"
With the comparison of this eunuch, the image of the old eunuch in everyone's mind became much clearer! He didn't talk much, didn't talk much, worked steadily, and never made mistakes! Usually it's as if this person doesn't exist, but he needs lights and charcoal basins.
When the time comes, things will definitely appear on time! This makes them sigh even more!
At this time, the clerk said: "If he is your master, why doesn't he come to you for help?"
The eunuch whispered: "The rules in the palace are very strict. The servants can't go out, and he can't come in! Even if there are occasional days of rest, the servants don't know that he is in the capital, so they can't see him at all! If the elder Ge hadn't mentioned this
The thing is, this slave thought he had returned to his hometown!"
After hearing this, everyone sighed again, but it was just a sigh! After all, the life of a eunuch only added some more talk for these people who controlled the most important things in the Ming Dynasty!
Everyone briefly discussed a few words. When Zhang Siwei saw that Zhang Juzheng had not spoken, he asked curiously: "Taiyue, what do you think of these two things arranged by His Majesty?"
Zhang Juzheng said slowly: "These two things are good governance, but the person who came up with the idea is probably not His Majesty, but Liu Haojia, the little bannerman of the Imperial Guard!"
Zhang Siwei said: "It seems that Taiyue pays special attention to this person. Is there something special about this person?"
Zhang Juzheng said: "I think this person is very dangerous and should be sent away from the capital!"
Shen Shixing waved his hand to signal the eunuch to step back, and then said, "Isn't that right? His idea is pretty good, isn't it?"
Zhang Juzheng said: "It would be fine if this person was just a lucky person. Just from these two things, we can see that this person is very smart! If this person stands in the temple in the future, I am afraid that the disaster will be greater than Jiang Bin's."
Qian Ning and his like are even more violent!"
Everyone was silent for a while. Of course, everyone knew that it was unfair to convict Liu Haojia like this, but no one was going to speak for him! The simplest reason was that Liu Haojia was a warrior! Now the entire Ming Dynasty was ruled by literati, and it was precisely because Liu Haojia was a warrior.
When singing and dancing bring peace, where is the need for warriors to take the lead? So if there are signs of warriors rising to power, removing them is considered a precautionary measure!
Zhang Siwei was silent for a moment and said: "It's just that there is nothing obvious about dealing with him now!"
Zhang Juzheng said: "It's okay, don't worry! If you find an opportunity in the future, just send him far away from the capital! As time goes by, your Majesty will forget about him!"
After hearing this, everyone nodded in agreement, saying that such a lucky person should stay far away from His Majesty! As for the old eunuch and the crying middle-aged eunuch they were talking about just now, they have long forgotten!
